Course Description

Are you unsure which process variables have an impact on the output of your process? Are there too many variables to address? If so, it’s time to consider a designed experiment. In this course, learn the fundamental concepts of widely used DOE methodologies in a logical and practical sequence. These concepts will help you gather valuable information about how process variables behave and interact with each other for significantly less cost.

This course requires the use of MinitabTM statistical software; attendees are responsible for bringing laptops with MinitabTM 16 to the class.

Objectives
  • Learn how DOE can be used to characterize or improve processes.
  • Recognize the advantages of experimenting by changing variable settings simultaneously (instead of one at a time).
  • Learn how to screen variables to determine which are indeed factors in your process.
  • Learn how to go beyond screening to determine the settings for the variables that will produce the best results for the output variable.
  • Recognize ways and procedures to reduce the number of experimental trials and still obtain sound results that will help you characterize or improve your process.
  • Learn about other DOE methodologies that may be useful to your own business applications.
  • Recognize how DOE thinking can help you avoid spending money in expensive data collection that may not help you understand or improve your processes.
Topics
  • Introduction to DOE
  • The factorial approach to DOE
  • Designing an experiment

Who Should Attend

Managers and professionals who are engaged in process improvement activities, as well as related quality, engineering, R&D, manufacturing, process, and industrial personnel. Also valuable for anyone involved in a Lean and/or Six Sigma deployment.
